Me, The Romantic Kind.

This is what boredom does to a person; it forces you to indulge silly-billy online quizzes/tests, something one wouldn’t even spare a second on otherwise. And so, strangled by the Saturday morning dullness, I ended by taking the Mi-iD Valentines Test.

As per the website, Mi-iD Test works on…

Psychometrics is the science of understanding, measuring and predicting differences and similarities between people. Literally “the measurement of the psyche (soul or mind)”, psychometrics developed more than 100 years ago with the creation of multivariate inferential statistics. One of its most important legacies is the concept and measurement of personality traits – those consistent patterns of preferences, thoughts, emotionality and behaviour that explain why different people behave differently in the same situation.

And quite surprisingly though I found some portions to be quite accurate, taking into account – my natural instincts/behaviour and my relationship with the Ex.

For your amusement (at my cost), here’s a sneak peak.

Yippee, full marks on passion and romance. Partner sexually attractive – now this is a must. And as far as commitment goes, for some un-known reasons I continue to have a problem with this word.

My (interesting) Personality Traits

• Extraversion

You are ambiverted, which means neither introverted nor extraverted. You are variable and adaptable like most people. Sometimes you are happier on your own than with others, whereas on other occasions you really enjoy being with friends and meeting new people. You are comfortable in social situations and are confident interacting with others but prefer to avoid being the centre of attention.

• Openness

You are intellectual, curious, creative and cultured. You probably enjoy art in all its forms and have a preference for non-conventional things. You are open-minded and enjoy trying new things. You tend to be tolerant and to have liberal attitudes. You have a “hungry mind” and enjoy reading to find out about the world, which you see as a fascinating and complex place. You have a vivid imagination and day-dream easily. Sometimes you find it hard to keep your feet on the ground. You have a creative personality.

• Agreeableness

You are relatively agreeable, warm and tender-hearted. You prefer to have friendly relationships with people but if something is not right you will let them know. When necessary, you will engage in arguments and tell people what you think but you feel it is better to avoid conflicts if possible. Although you like honesty, you are willing to hide your views if they are too negative and may hurt others.

As mentioned above, from my experience the test looks to be genuine and not one of those “fakeu” tests where mostly all end up getting the same end responses. So yeah, if you are as bored or just for the kicks of it – try out the Valentines’ Survey – who knows, you might be equally surprised with the outcome.

[Ps – like most genuine tests, genuine answers are a must for genuine results]
